The creation of the linked server worked, but queries using the linked server failed. I dropped the linked server, marked active the "Allow In Process", recreated the linked server and after that, the Query succeeded. Weekend saved :-)Regards, Anne Evert-NielsenFri, 16 Jan 2015 06:57:57 GMTmette.evertRE: Strange Linked server issuehttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1298249-1042-1.aspxHi,I had the same error message popping up after a few rows being retrieved from the linked server. The same query when ran on a different data set, was working fine without any errors. Then I started some research and came to know that, it was a data related issue. In my scenario, the select statement was having a case condition which was failing to validate.ThanksKranthiTue, 01 Jul 2014 13:51:10 GMTStudent OnlineRE: Strange Linked server issuehttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1298249-1042-1.aspxAll, I have fixed it using "Allow in Process" Setting of "Oracle.oledb" provider. 1. Unchecked "Allow In Process" setting for provider.2. Created Linked Server.3. Checked "Allow In process" setting for provider.I could n't created Linked server when above setting is enabled, So I had to uncheck the option and create the linked server. But I don't really understand why. If anyone has same experience and know the reason, Please post here.ThanksMadhu PradeepMon, 14 May 2012 08:06:59 GMTl.madhupradeepStrange Linked server issuehttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1298249-1042-1.aspxHi All, I am having problem with pulling data from Linked Server that I have created using "Oracle Oledb Provider". I am able to created Linked server and tested the connection successfully. But I am unable select the data from table when running SELECT statement.

Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1The OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "IMPRX_D" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "IMPRX_D".
